Mountfield 4000TH Lawn & Garden Tractor (Honda Engine) £2899.00
This high-performance, high-specification lawn tractor from Mountfield offers the sort premium features that are a must-have for the discerning homeowner. Its powerful 530cc Honda GCV530 Twin-Cylinder engine powers the rear-wheels via a hydrostatic-drive. This superb feature works rather like the automatic transmission you’d find on a car; simply press harder on the foot-pedal and you’ll go faster (there’s a separate pedal for reverse). The manoeuvrability this provides works with light-touch steering and a tight-turning radius to ensure trees, shrubs and other garden obstacles can be negotiated with ease. The Mountfield 4000TH Lawn & Garden Tractor has a 102cm twin-blade cutter-deck, so it’s capable of covering very large lawns and paddocks (up to 2 ½ – 3 acres) in fewer passes. The action of the blades creates a strong flow of air that powers cut grass into the large-capacity 260-litre collector with no clumping. The collector is fitted with an audible ‘collector full’ alarm, which should stop the discharge chute becoming blocked; and it can be emptied without getting off the tractor – simply pull a lever and the bottom of the collector opens. The seven-stage cutting-height height on the Mountfield 4000TH is adjustable between 25 and 80mm to suit conditions and can be controlled while on the move using a lever handily positioned to left-hand-side of the driver. A deck-wash facility means you can attach a hosepipe, engage the blades and stand-back as the underside of the deck is cleared of performance inhibiting clippings. A key benefit of the Mountfield 4000TH is the fact that it cuts beyond the wheel-width, greatly reducing the amount of post-mowing strimming-work that’s required. Electric key ignition makes starting fast and hassle-free; and twin-headlights will enable you to finish the job if it’s getting dark. A tow-bar is included, while a mulch-kit can be bought separately.
